If only the Speaker put half as much energy into governing as he does into avoiding work.
He still hasn’t sworn in Representative-elect Grijalva, people are hungry, planes are grounded, and Republicans are on vacation.
They’re showing you exactly who they are. Believe them.
This win should light a fire under Democratic governors everywhere. When leaders in states like Virginia, Maryland, and Illinois look at the win in California, their takeaways should be clear: Be bold. Be ambitious. Follow California’s lead.
LOL
Maybe don't start destroying the White House right before an election. Things the consultants don't tell you.
I can’t believe they called prop 50 the moment polls closed. That tells you something. Most of these races were called within 45 minutes. It’s a BLOWOUT, y’all. THAT is what we call a MANDATE.
Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

Sorry to all those stuck working today. The best way to honor them is by staying home and relaxing so we don’t encourage businesses to stay open. To those in jobs that are always necessary and rarely get a break: thank you for your sacrifice and service. We know many don’t get the day off.
“The government should be run like a business.”
It was dumb the first time someone said it, and it’s aged like cyanide-laced milk.
Groundwater is drying out, heating up, and causing sea level rise.
Overuse has created zones of “mega-drying” around the world — and caused more sea level rise than Greenland’s ice sheet.

An upside down cat's paw pad with a smiley face drawn on the top toe bean to make it look like a teddy bear. The text says "cats paw pads are really tiny teddy bears"
In English a cat’s paw pads can be called “toe beans.” In German, I’ve heard them referred to as Zehenbeere, or “toe berries.” In Japanese they are 肉球 (“flesh buns”). Norwegian has tredeputer, or “stepping pillows.” And a colloquial Korean name for them is 냥젤리. It essentially means “meow-gummies.”

For all those rightwingers crying about how “DeMoCrAtS GerRyMaNdEr ToO,” just ask them if they support a nationwide ban on gerrymandering. We do. They don’t. They’re not mad at the concept of gerrymandering, they’re mad that they don’t get to be the only party wielding it anymore.

Thank you to Scotland 🏴 for showing up and taking a stand this weekend. We loved the signs, so many of them made us laugh. This weekend showed that the resistance is growing and that we have friends everywhere! Scotland the Brave!
FEMA is using our taxes—intended for disaster relief—to build concentration camps.
While they shift focus towards creating “more facilities like Florida’s ‘Alligator Alcatraz,’” they’re failing to support Texas and are intentionally withholding critical relief from states with Democratic governors.
What a thread. Lots of books moved up on my TBR list, and lots of new ones as well. Maybe even a few I might re-read.
Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) is run by Trump evangelicals who are openly killing Palestinians and shouldn’t receive a dime from our government.
Illustration of an adult human standing in the country next to a 30-foot tall pole. a sign reads "San Joaquin Valley, California subsidence 1925-2025" At the bottom of the pole is a 2025 marker, indicating the current surface level. As the pole goes up there are markers for the surface levels in 2000, 1975, 1950 and at the very top 1925.
As you pump all the fresh water out of underground aquifers, the ground above it can sink. It's happening all around the world.
Take the surface of California’s Central Valley, which is now nearly 30 vertical feet lower than it was a century ago.

More people were shot and killed in America over Memorial Day weekend than are killed by guns in Japan and the UK combined during an average year. It’s not DEI, drag shows, or library books that caused that. It’s guns. It’s always the guns.
Here's a picture that a @kuow.org photographer took in Seattle yesterday, showing the ICE officers masked up in the hallways as they waited to arrest people coming out of their hearings.
